A couple examples why the SPÖ can sometimes be classified as a joke party:
* A Carinthian SPÖ politician recently called for prostitutes to be excluded from the voter lists, because "they have no clue what these elections are all about". Funnily, the ÖVP mayor of the town where the brothel (Carinthia's biggest, btw) was located strongly defended the prostitutes' voting rights (and of course they will be allowed to vote in March).
* The Salzburg state SPÖ-leader, who earns 4000€ a month (14 times a year), once said that "this is not enough and I can't live with only 4000€ a month" and that he wants 7000€ a month. The average income/pension of the SPÖ-voter (mostly retired people) is something like 900-1500€ a month.
